Several important pollution control projects will be implemented. The government will take action to reduce the pollution in Liao River Basin and Bohai Sea. And the air pollution will be controlled in cities. Liaoning will strengthen the construction of infrastructures to support the sustainable development of economy. The government will speed up the process of urbanization in the whole province. Main Objectives Liaoning will optimize the economic structure and improve the quality of economic growth and increase the economic benefits. The government will work hard to reduce the difference between urban and rural areas. The living conditions of the residents will be improved. (1) Objective of Economic Growth In 2005, the GDP growth will be 9% and the GDP per capita will be 16300 RMB; up to 2010, the GDP will be doubled comparing with the level in 2000 and the GDP per capita will be 25100 RMB; up to 2020, the GDP per capita will be 38000 RMB. (2) Objective of Economic Restructuring In 2005, the ratios of added value in the first, second and third sectors will be 9:49:42; up to 2010, the ratios will be 6:44:50; up to 2020, the ratios will be 5:40:55. (3) Objectives of Population and Employment In 2005, the total population will be 43.40 million; up to 2010, the population will be totally controlled within 45.50 million; up to 2020, it will be 46.90million. The registered unemployment percentage will be controlled less than 5% in cities and towns. (3) Objective of Environment Protection The quality of biological environment will be improved greatly. In 2005, the forest coverage percentage in the whole province will be 35%. The quality of surface water will satisfy the requirement of functional indicators. The air quality in cities will reach the secondary standard. Up to 2010, the forest coverage percentage in the whole province will be 40%; and it will be 42% in 2020. (4) Objective of Social Development Liaoning will achieve universal 9-year compulsory education for the students in the whole province. The government will construct more junior high schools in the rural area. Liaoning will take action to improve the employment situation and promote the reform of social security system. The percentage of social security fund collection will reach 100%. 2.2 Population and Urbanization Increase of Total Population Liaoning has entered the period of low birth and low increase of the population. The increase of population is stable. According to age structure of the population in China, it is anticipated that the stable increase of population in Liaoning will continued in the 21st century. Up to 2020, the population increase will be zero and at that time the population will reach its peak level. The average increase of population is 40000 every year. Urbanization Generally, at the beginning stage, the urbanization level is always less than 30% and the process is slow; in middle stage, the percentage of urbanization is about 30%-70% and the process is faster; in the later stage, the percentage of urbanization is higher than 70% and the process will become slow again. And the reverse phenomena become more. The level of urbanization in Liaoning in 2000 was 53.8% that is in the fast developing stage. From 180 to 2000, the urban population increased from 11.38 million to 22.24 million with the average growth of 3.4% every year. The annual increase of urbanization is 1.1%. The percentage of urbanization in Liaoning is over 50% and the process has been slowdown. From 1990 to 2000, the increase of urbanization in Liaoning was 8%. The annual increase was 0.8%. The urban population was increased 4.3 million with the annual growth of 2.2%. Now even though the urban population has increased greatly, the quality of urbanization is not good (low economic growth and poor infrastructure quality). Improving the quality of urbanization is an important task. The reform of household registration system in small towns will be continued. It is helpful for promoting the increase of urban population in small cities and towns. Generally the objectives of urbanization are as following: z In 2005, the percentage of urbanization will reach 59% with the average growth of 1% every year; up to 2010, the percentage of urbanization will reach 63% with the average growth of 0.8% every year; up to 2020, the percentage of urbanization will reach 70% with the average growth of 0.7% every year. z In 2005, the urban population will be 25.60 million with the annual increase of 670000; up to 2010, the urban population will be 28.60 million with the annual increase of 600000; up to 2020, the urban population will be 32.80 million with the annual increase of 420000. In the planning period, the increase of urban population will be about 10.60 million and the increasing percentage is 48%. Increase and Transition of Urban and Rural Population (1) Difference of Growth According to the population sampling survey in 1995, the growth of rural population in China is 0.75% and the growth of urban population is 0.59%. The growth of rural population is higher. (2) Increase of Urban and Rural Population In 2000, the urban and rural populations in Liaoning were 22.24 million and 19.11 million. In the last tow decades, the growths at the peak level were 0.6% and 0.75% and the growths at the lowest level were 0.2% and 0.25%. If before 2010, the growths are 0.6% and 0.75% and from 2010 to 2020, the growths are 0.2% and 0.25%.

Received: 18 June 2020; Accepted: 25 July 2020; Published: 28 July 2020 Abstract: Land use/cover change (LUCC) and ecosystem service functions are current hot topics in global research on environmental change. A comprehensive analysis and understanding of the land use changes and ecosystem services, and the equilibrium state of the interaction between the natural environment and the social economy is crucial for the sustainable utilization of land resources. We used remote sensing image to research the LUCC, ecosystem service value (ESV), and ecological economic harmony (EEH) in eight main urban areas of Harbin in China from 1990 to 2015. The results show that, in the past 25 years, arable land—which is a part of ecological land—is the main source of construction land for urbanization, whereas the other ecological land is the main source of conversion to arable land.

Drought is a ubiquitous and reoccurring hazard that has wide ranging impacts on society, agriculture and the 11 environment. Drought indices are vital for characterizing the nature and severity of drought hazards, and there have been 12 extensive efforts to identify the most suitable drought indices for drought monitoring and risk assessment. However, to date, 13 little effort has been made to explore which index(s) best represents drought impacts for various sectors in China. This is a 14 critical knowledge gap, as impacts provide important ‘ground truth’ information. The aim of this study is to explore the link 15 between drought indices and drought impacts, using Liaoning province (northeast China) as a case study due to its history of 16 drought occurrence. To achieve this we use independent, but complementary, methods (correlation and random forest analysis) 17 to identify which indices link best to the recorded drought impacts for cities in Liaoning.

  • Issues and Challenges of Governance in Chinese Urban Regions
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2015 Metropolitanization and State Re-scaling in China: Issues and Challenges of Governance in Chinese Urban Regions Dong, Lisheng ; Kübler, Daniel Abstract: Since the 1978 reforms, city-regions are on the rise in China, and urbanisation is expected to continue as the Central Government intends to further push city development as part of the economic modernisation agenda. City-regions pose new challenges to governance. They transcend multiple local jurisdictions and often involve higher level governments. This paper aims to provide an improved un- derstanding of city-regional governance in China, focusing on three contrasting examples (the Yangtze River Delta Metropolitan Region, the Beijing- Tianjin-Hebei Metropolitan Region, and the Guanzhong- Tianshui Metropolitan Region). We show that, in spite of a strong vertical dimension of city-regional governance in China, the role and interference of the Central Government in matters of metropolitan policy-making is variable.

  • Study on the Economic Competitiveness
    6th International Conference on Management, Education, Information and Control (MEICI 2016) Study on the Economic Competitiveness Evaluation of Coastal Counties: Example as Liaoning Province Qiang Mao School of Management, Bohai University, Jinzhou 121013, China. [email protected] Keywords: Economic competitiveness; Competitiveness evaluation; Coastal counties Abstract. The competitiveness of coastal county is an important area of study on regional competitiveness, and evaluation study on county economy is important basis and foundation to improve the competitiveness of coastal county economy. Based on a brief description of literature review, a method based on stakeholders’ perspective is proposed to solve the competitiveness evaluation problem. In addition, the effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated by the example as Liaoning province. Finally, some countermeasures are proposed to promote coastal county economy according the evaluation result and characteristics. Introduction Due to convenient transportation conditions for international trade, coastal counties get prosperity for trading with the world and will be easy to form manufacturing bases for processing trade. Many scholars are attracted to the research of economic competitiveness evaluation for its widely application background. Liu(2013) established evaluation index system of county economy for Tangshan, and proposed a method for county economy evaluation based on factor analysis [1]. He(2014) designed evaluation index system based on the perspective of economy development demand in county level, and analyzed the supporting ability of science and technology in Anhui by means of analytic hierarchy process(AHP) [2].Above mentioned methods have each superiority, but evaluation results rely too much on experts’ preference. Evaluation objects are considered as passive objects in the above evaluation problems, while evaluation objects always have more complete evaluation information.

  • Religion in China BKGA 85 Religion Inchina and Bernhard Scheid Edited by Max Deeg Major Concepts and Minority Positions MAX DEEG, BERNHARD SCHEID (EDS.)
    Religions of foreign origin have shaped Chinese cultural history much stronger than generally assumed and continue to have impact on Chinese society in varying regional degrees. The essays collected in the present volume put a special emphasis on these “foreign” and less familiar aspects of Chinese religion. Apart from an introductory article on Daoism (the BKGA 85 BKGA Religion in China proto­typical autochthonous religion of China), the volume reflects China’s encounter with religions of the so-called Western Regions, starting from the adoption of Indian Buddhism to early settlements of religious minorities from the Near East (Islam, Christianity, and Judaism) and the early modern debates between Confucians and Christian missionaries. Contemporary Major Concepts and religious minorities, their specific social problems, and their regional diversities are discussed in the cases of Abrahamitic traditions in China. The volume therefore contributes to our understanding of most recent and Minority Positions potentially violent religio-political phenomena such as, for instance, Islamist movements in the People’s Republic of China. Religion in China Religion ∙ Max DEEG is Professor of Buddhist Studies at the University of Cardiff. His research interests include in particular Buddhist narratives and their roles for the construction of identity in premodern Buddhist communities.

To develop a method to identify Clematidis radix et Rhizoma using sequence similarity and sequence-specific genetic polymorphisms based on the ITS sequences. DNA was extracted from leaves of Clematis mandshurica Rupr and C. hexapetala using a DNA extraction kit. ITS sequences were amplified by PCR, and analyzed in Contig Express, DNAman, and MEGA 5.0. The core haplotype was determined, and similarities between the core and other haplotypes were calculated. In total, 138 ITS sequences of C. mandshurica were obtained with a length of 611 bp. The similarity threshold between C. mandshurica and counterfeit species was 99%. Using specific mutation sites, we could identify C. chinensis, C. hexapetala, and C. mandshurica rapidly and accurately. A new DNA-based method has been established to rapidly and accurately identify Clematidis radix et Rhizoma. Key words: Clematidis radix et Rhizoma; Core haplotype; Identification threshold; Mutation sites INTRODUCTION Clematidis radix et Rhizoma is the dry radix and rhizome of Clematis chinensis Osbeck, C.
